Majesco's 'Cooking Mama' for Nintendo DS(TM) Receives Industry Accolades at E3 Trade Show

    EDISON, N.J., May 30 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Majesco Entertainment
Company (Nasdaq: COOL), an innovative provider of digital entertainment
products and content, recently received several industry accolades for
Cooking Mama, a unique new Nintendo DS(TM) game that debuted at the
Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), the video game industry's annual trade
show.
    Cooking Mama was awarded several honors including: "Most Innovative DS
Design of E3 2006" from leading video game website IGN; and GameDaily's
"Nod Award," which called Cooking Mama "a fun DS game that uses the stylus
to near perfection."
    "We are very pleased with the initial reaction to Cooking Mama since
this fun and addictive title deserves attention," said Ken Gold, vice
president of Marketing, Majesco Entertainment. "Cooking Mama is just one
outstanding product within Majesco's diverse product lineup we will be
introducing this year."
    Cooking Mama challenges players to use the stylus as a master kitchen
tool to cook 76 real world dishes ranging from pepperoni pizza to cabbage
meat rolls. Under Mama's watchful eye, players must first prepare
ingredients, then combine, cook and present the final meal all via the
touch screen. Players can even "cool down" dishes by blowing into the DS
microphone and share their favorite recipes with friends via the DS
wireless link.
    Developed by Taito, Cooking Mama will be available in September for a
suggested retail price of $19.99. More information can be found online at
